Basically I've created this thread to let anyone ask anything about the site, including myself. My question is...What is the weapon situation now? Obviously guns are now out of the question, but what will happen to get rid of them? We can not just forget about them...things can't work that way.

Haha, strangely, we did, I thought about this quite a bit, and that was one of Linx's arguments it'd be too hard to get rid of them. But, if we must...
The only thing I ever came up with was, a fire in the armory, but that would be too much damage.

Wait a minute, you mean to say that at one time guns were allowed? If they are now discouraged, it is neccesary to have them be destroyed in-rp.
I have two ideas for this:
1. Lock the guns up in a secure lock and throw the key into the sea.
2. Dump them into the ocean

That wouldn't work, first of all, WHY would you do that? They are wonderful weapons, for descriptions, go to Exotic Weaponry. And yes, they were, and no, they aren't allowed

I had another idea that might work. Since firearms are distributed around the world of otter's fort, the only thing left to do is 'phase them out' so to speak.
Firearms depend upon ammunition. If Ammunition stopped being produced, the gun would become useless. Just a thought...

And they'd stop making ammunition... Why? I'm pretty sure places outside OF would have started manufacturing their own arms and ammunition by now. The spread of technology as such cannot be destroyed with a simple fire or resource shortage. There's only one way to actually drive them out of the picture, and that is a complete deletion of all past events pertaining to repeating ranged weaponry, right back to the bolt repeater where it all started.

The only place that I can think of that would be intelligent enough, and would want to is Salamandastron, but, say, there's no Badger Lord right now. OF stops making ammo, no use for the guns, that's a great idea.

Or we could just forget that guns ever existed. I mean, rping is all about using your imagination. *disappears again*

One, I'll be Badger Lord if you want... Linx Exotic and Dirge- About the "getting rid of ammo", why not one gun malfunction or something to that effect, then the animals get freaked out or something, and decide to get rid of it?... |

Twiddles fingers* You know if there was a badger lord able to rp on this site....and You got it springheel Jakk....I would send you a dead fish. I hope you understand what will happen yes?
Other than that.... I would ever so not want to just rewind time and forget abou them...because that just gets rid of a ton of stuff...overall confusion. Basicly it is the only method though, because any other would involve destroying society entirely....hmmm.

They'd have to discover uranium and learn how to make conventional explosives first.  There is no way to remove guns from RP in character. Malfunctions with them have happened already and nobody seems to care, and they've become more or less ubiquitous. The only thing to do is pretend they never existed to start. |

When I first came here, I was... Eight. That's pretty hard to beat.
So no guns. I'm going to reserve bo-shuriken, though.
